BIO
John-David Richardson (he/they) is an artist, educator, and editorial photographer born and raised between Franklin County, Alabama, in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, and Marshall County, Kentucky. Their artistic interest and research center on understanding generational poverty and trauma related to class, family, region, and the American South. John-David grew up in skate parks across Kentucky and Alabama and learned about the importance of community-based learning. And continues to bring a sense of belonging and investigation of coming of age to their artistic practice.
John-David teaches photography full-time in the Department of Design, Art, Architecture, & Planning (DAAP) at the University of Cincinnati in Cincinnati, OH. He has a highly active editorial career outside of teaching, and his work is frequently shown both online and in print by clients such as Bloomberg Business Week, NPR, The Wall Street Journal, and VICE.
